When a microscope is used to look at cells, scientists will often take photographs or produce drawings - (these are many times large than the real cell or structure)
What is the definition for magnification?
How many times larger the image is than the real object
Magnification = size of image / size of real object
Magnification is not the same as resolution
Light microscopes can be built to magnify more and more , but after certain point, the images do not get any clearer
